So last saturday I worked as part of Gloria's volunteer staff in History's concert. Here in my blog I'm going to tell only about my general work experience. If you expect to hear some juicy backstage stories etc. I have to disappoint you. I have professional attitude to every work I'll do and I'm very strict about keeping privacy of certain things.
Everyone who was working in there, knew somebody from staff (voluntary workers) or then were actually working there and getting paid. And all voluntary staff had been asked to work there, we didn't contact organiser or gloria ourselves. We got to hear that too many fans were trying to get inside to work there. I have to say to those who were sending too many messages; can you please control yourselves. Just because you're a fan you think it's ok to send billion messages to organisers begging to take you to work there. And the thought behind of all is that you could see the artist in backstage. Sorry to crash all dreams but it doesn't work that way AND you'll need a professional working attitude to work in a concert venue! You will not get anywhere by acting like you lose it every time the artist walks by. So if you know your favorite artist is coming to do concert, please stop harrassing the organisers with your messages! They will not look kindly upon fans who try to get to backstage by the excuse of asking to work in there.
My day wasn't very good to begin with, to be honest some staff treated us badly. I was there to work with couple friends and my job was to sell fan merch. And because of some fans tried to push themselves in as a staff there (by sending messages of "please let me work there"), some of actual staff showed bad attitude towards us from the start. I can partly understand that, it does not look very good if too many young looking girls are walking around in the venue. But we were still actually working there... and to avoid misunderstadnings they could have actually asked for example my age and what I'm doing in there because some of staff referred to me as "fangirl staff" or "that teen staff over there." I know I have a babyface and propably look like ordinary teen fan who got lucky and got inside through someone but misunderstandings could have been solved by just asking me with couple questions...
So my job was selling merch, I had my friend with me; she did all accounting. We were assigned to it because both of us has experience being sales assistants and handling money. Well, so has the other two volunteer workers xD but one of them were assigned to ticket selling and one was helping organiser. Because merch table was actually inside the venue hall we got to enjoy concert while selling fan merch. I have to say History boys were awesome, I wished I would have bought an actual ticket to watch :P But I have my Korean trip coming in a month so I have to save money. Anyway I was having good time watching concert behind merch table also. And we got good sales, every customer we got were great and no problems there :)
When concert ended we got no info when to pack things up. Meet&greet started a shortly after and during it we wondered if we should close now or not. We finally decided to close up when queue to m&g was almost finished. We were in a quite bad mood because we got no info, no official staff around who could answer our questions etc. So we decided to go up where propably over half of the staff was arranging m&g. I gave important things to head of staff when we found him and then we like were just saying that we're ready to leave when suddenly someone just grabs us and was like "go to line and go thank the artist" and all of us who volunteered were like what? And then suddenly I found myself shaking hands with History members and they said thank you to all staff individually. Because my day wasn't that good this brightened up my mood majorly! And after handshakes we got pushed into staff photo xD Whole time I was like what is even happening lol. And in that staff photo I have very confused facial expression, I almost look like somebody made me go into that photo by force xD I just want to say that History boys were sweet even though I didn't know the group before this concert. They were so down to earth and nice to fans and staff equally.

To finish this text I just want to say to those certain fans that please behave! Seriously. You're ruining other fans reputation. Do not send messages and harrass official staff and do not follow the artist around town, that's stalking. And it's especially NOT ok to look every opportunity you have to sneak to backstage and steal something that might've belonged to artist in question. I have been in concerts as a fan so I know how excited you get when you meet your favorite artist BUT it's still not ok to act like that...
And to some who might critizise me for saying this even though I got to work there; I actually got asked to work there instead of pushing myself in to work. And being unemployed I went there gladly. I'm tired of staying at home all the time so I was happy to get a chance to actually work and be useful. And just to say; they also confirmed from us that we're _not_ fans of History so it will not cause any problems (about how we act).
This week there is one winter market event in my town in saturday so I'm going there with a friend just to look. And then with my friend on sunday-monday night we're going to watch the Oscars :P yep, it's that time of a year again~ So at least something to look forward to.
Now to cosmetics review:
Missha Signature Complexion Coordinating BB SPF43/PA+++ No.1
Price: 23.65€ / $26
Where can I get it: for example kpoptown
So I got this small sample from when I ordered cosmetics sometime last year. I tried it a while ago and I have to say it's more reminding me of a primer than bb cream. The texture is thick and completely colorless so I was actually surprised about this because bb creams tend to have at least slight beige color. In description it said the cream adjusts to your skintone and brightens your complexion. But for me it only made my skin paler so my neck was pale and my face paler. I don't think this product fits to western person who has pale skin because it lightens your skintone even more than it is. But texture felt nice even though it was quite thick. Missha is one of my favorite brands so I was actually a bit dissappointed. Anyway I think this is propably made for asian skintones.
Would I buy this again? Sadly no. As I said it brightens and lightens my skintone too much making it even more paler.
Score 1/5
Fascy Pungseon Tina S. BB consealer cream
Price: about 20€ / $22
Where can I get it: sadly, only in korea at the moment. I didn't find this from online stores.
This was also a sample I got from ordering cosmetics and I tried it this week. I actually fell in love with this! Color was light beige and perfect with my skintone. And texture was smooth and light, it spreaded easily. It adjusted to my skintone really well and left a natural look like I wouldn't even have makeup on. It smoothened away all blemishes and color differences.
Would I buy this? When I'm going to korea I'm going to hunt this down :P really loved it!
Score 5/5
This was all for this post, see you later :P
